Axias Inc.

Axias Inc., operating as Axias with subsidiaries based in Alexandria, Virginia, Florida, New York, Georgia, and Washington DC, delivers construction cost estimation, infrastructure condition assessment, project management, and engineering services primarily as a subcontractor (74% of recent awards) to larger design and engineering primes, with a smaller prime footprint concentrated on the GSA Multiple Award Schedule and agency-specific indefinite delivery vehicles. The company competes across both set-aside (Total Small Business on most prime work) and full-and-open task orders.

Axias's capability portfolio centers on cost estimating, condition assessment, and scheduling services delivered across federal real property, civil works, and facility infrastructure projects. Representative prime work includes a $4.02 million firm fixed-price delivery order from the Defense Department's Engineering and Support Center (issued September 2025, performance through 2030) for unspecified support services under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule; a $882,906 BPA call from the National Park Service (April 2026) for comprehensive condition assessment of concessioner-assigned real property at Grand Teton National Park, including labor, materials, and travel; and a $265,000 definitive contract from the Engineer Research and Development Center (September 2025) for cost estimating using the MCACES II application to develop project item assemblies for asset replacement actions. A $10 million multiple-award Indefinite Delivery Contract with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' Huntington District (awarded May 2023, through 2028) procures cost engineering support—including cost estimating, scheduling, controls, and earned value management—for civil works projects within the Great Lakes and Ohio River Division; Axias issued a $10,000 guaranteed delivery order against this vehicle in June 2023.

Customer concentration reflects Axias's specialization in federal real property and infrastructure work. The National Park Service National Office dominates prime award volume and dollars, accounting for 14 awards with $11.3 million combined potential value; the Army Corps of Engineers anchors the second-largest value position ($10 million, primarily from the Huntington District IDIQ), and the GSA Federal Acquisition Service places a $4.02 million delivery order. Together, these three customers represent 77% of combined potential value across all awards. The top five customer agencies by award count cover 56% of awards, with the Navy's Naval Facilities Engineering Command and Naval Sea Systems Command together representing 18 awards (primarily subcontract work to larger engineering primes). Axias serves 34 distinct agencies across recent activity.

Axias places the bulk of its work under the GSA Multiple Award Schedule (34 task orders, $20.7 million combined potential value) and several agency-specific indefinite delivery contracts: IDC 47PF0019D0057 (12 task orders), IDC N6945024D0003 (8 task orders), and IDC 140P2022D0018 (7 task orders). The company also holds positions on the GSA Professional Services Schedule (6 task orders). Most of Axias's prime awards flow through these vehicles rather than direct agency procurement.

Activity has tracked at 6–24 awards per year over the past five years, peaking at 24 awards in 2022 and moderating to 6 in 2026 to date; combined potential value across all 93 awards (prime and sub) stands at $33.7 million, with $11 million obligated. Only four awards face ultimate completion in the next twenty-four months (combined potential value $1.3 million), indicating limited near-term recompete pressure from the prime footprint.

Axias operates predominantly as a subcontractor to major design and engineering firms. Named prime contractors include Burns & McDonnell Engineering Company (cost estimating and design services on naval shipyard and military installation projects, including the Norfolk Coastal Storm Risk Management Phase 3 and NAS Jacksonville upgrades), Stantec Consulting Services (cost estimating and scheduling on National Park Service projects including Yellowstone and Death Valley work), Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson (construction management and cost estimating on courthouse and federal building seismic retrofit and renovation projects), Steven Kahle Architects (cost estimation and scheduling on federal courthouses and General Services Administration facilities work), Eastern Research Group (cost estimation supporting Naval Surface Warfare Center Indian Head Division energetics manufacturing), and Jacobs Government Services (engineering services on military potable water and facility projects). Across SCI-reportable service contracts, Axias grew from 0.7 FTEs in FY2022 to 35.7 FTEs in FY2024 across subcontract positions—a trajectory indicating expanding delivery scale on federal service contracts. The company's GSA Schedule labor portfolio spans 27 categories at hourly rates from $71.52 (Project Administrator - Field, high school education) through $256.80 (Expert Witness/Senior Claims Consultant, 15 years experience), with mid-range estimators and project managers priced in the $109–$186 per-hour band. Inspector and senior management roles requiring security clearances command $157–$175 per hour.

Category concentration reflects Axias's core engineering and construction focus. Engineering Services dominates by award count (44 awards), followed by Commercial and Institutional Building Construction (19 awards) and Architectural Services (16 awards), with Research and Development in Physical, Engineering, and Life Sciences (12 awards) and Building Inspection Services (2 awards) rounding out the set. The company's subcontract-heavy model—74% of awards as a sub versus 26% as prime—positions it as a feeder vendor to larger engineering and construction management primes rather than a standalone federal prime contractor. Axias's geographic footprint extends across multiple federal installations and National Park System properties (Grand Teton, Yellowstone, Death Valley, Great Smoky Mountains, and others), with administrative operations centered in Alexandria.
